[0040] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This application provides a musical instrument mouthpiece, which includes a body 10, a fixing component 20, and an isolation component 30. The following is a detailed description:

[0041] The body 10 is a hollow cylinder with openings at both ends. A first mounting groove 121 and a second mounting groove 122 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the body 10. The body 10 can effectively guide air to other parts of the instrument to produce notes, and its openings at both ends facilitate smooth airflow.

[0042] The fixing component 20 includes an arched bracket 21 and a clamping part 22. The two ends of the arched bracket 21 are detachably fixed to the first mounting groove 121 and the second mounting groove 122, respectively. The clamping part 22 passes through the middle region of the arched bracket 21 and is movable towards or away from the body 10. Specifically, the arched bracket 21 can be a U-shaped structure, with both ends of the U-shaped structure detachably fixed to the first mounting groove 121 and the second mounting groove 122, respectively.

[0043] The isolation component 30 includes a fitting part 31 and a fixing part 32. The fitting part 31 is used to fit onto one end opening of the body 10, and the fixing part 32 is connected to the fitting part 31 and is used to be pressed against the outside of the body 10 by the pressing part 22.

[0044] When the fitting part 31 is fitted onto the opening at one end of the body 10, the clamping part 22 presses the fixing part 32 against the outside of the body 10, so that the isolation component 30 is fixed on the body 10. The fitting part 31 can provide effective isolation protection for the position where the body 10 is fitted, preventing external contamination.

[0045] Based on this, the isolation component 30 can be pressed onto the main body 10 at any time. For example, during a short break in a concert, the isolation component 30 can be directly fitted onto the end of the instrument mouthpiece to protect it, without having to remove the instrument mouthpiece from the instrument for storage.

[0046] In an optional embodiment, the body 10 includes a blowing section 11, a middle section 12, and a connecting section 13 connected in sequence. The blowing section 11 has a blowing port for receiving gas, allowing the gas to enter the instrument's mouthpiece and then the instrument connected to it. The middle section 12 has a first mounting groove 121 and a second mounting groove 122 on opposite sides. One end of the connecting section 13 is used to communicate with the instrument.

[0047] The airflow section 11 is used to allow airflow into the instrument's mouthpiece, where it comes into contact with the player's breath through the air inlet. Specifically, the airflow section 11 can be ergonomically designed to better suit the player's playing habits, improving comfort and reducing playing fatigue. This section can also be designed with different air inlet shapes and angles to optimize airflow effects, depending on the needs of different instruments. The air inlet can be located on the side wall at the end of the airflow section 11, allowing part of the inner wall of the airflow section 11 to protrude.

[0048] The middle section 12 is a transitional part connecting the blowing section 11 and the connecting section 13. It is located in the middle of the mouthpiece and has a first mounting groove 121 and a second mounting groove 122 on its opposite sides, which are used to connect with the arched bracket 21 and the pressing part 22 of the fixing component 20.

[0049] The connecting section 13 is the rear end of the mouthpiece, used to connect to the main body of the instrument (such as the airflow channel of a brass or woodwind instrument) to ensure the seal between the mouthpiece and the instrument and the transmission of airflow.

[0050] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the inner wall of the blowing section 11 is provided with multiple spaced grooves 111 to change the trajectory of the airflow, so that the airflow can generate small eddies within the blowing section 11. Specifically, the grooves 111 change the flow characteristics of the airflow by locally intervening in the airflow, thereby generating a specific flow pattern.

[0051] When the airflow passes through the blowing section 11, the groove 111 slightly disturbs the airflow trajectory, causing the air portion closest to the inner wall to slightly change its flow direction, forming small vortices. These small vortices do not completely disrupt the continuity of the airflow, but rather locally alter the airflow path.

[0052] The resulting small eddies complicate airflow, causing slight rotation and instability in localized areas. This not only doesn't affect the overall airflow transmission but also creates subtle turbulence at the airflow edges, increasing the diversity and layering of the airflow and ultimately improving sound quality. The formation of eddy regions contributes to producing richer, more dynamic sounds.

[0053] Specifically, in one embodiment, the projection of some of the grooves 111 onto the inner wall of the air blowing section 11 is arc-shaped, while the projection of other parts of the grooves 111 onto the inner wall of the air blowing section 11 is straight-shaped.

[0054] The curved grooves, due to their varying curvature, induce localized vortices as airflow passes through them, especially at the edges of the airflow. These vortices create slight disturbances within the blowing section 11, causing the airflow to become less completely smooth.

[0055] In this embodiment, the central groove 111 can be taken as a straight line, and the grooves 111 on both sides of the straight line can be bent in a direction away from the straight line to form arc-shaped grooves. The farther away the groove is from the central straight groove, the greater its curvature.

[0056] In some embodiments, the projection of the groove 111 onto the inner wall of the air blowing section 11 can also be wavy, further optimizing the flow characteristics of the airflow and enabling it to form a more complex and natural flow pattern when passing through the air blowing section 11.

[0057] In some embodiments, the groove 111 can be replaced by a corresponding convex structure, and the projection shape of the convex structure on the inner wall can also be arc-shaped, straight-line-shaped, or wavy-shaped, etc.

[0058] In an optional embodiment, the arched bracket 21 further includes a first fixing member 211 and a second fixing member 212; one end of the arched bracket 21 is provided with a first fixing hole, the first fixing member 211 passes through the first fixing hole and is fixedly connected to the first mounting groove 121; the other end of the arched bracket 21 is provided with a second fixing hole, the second fixing member 212 passes through the second fixing hole and is fixedly connected to the second mounting groove 122.

[0059] By setting the first fixing member 211 and the second fixing member 212, the two ends of the arched bracket 21 can be more firmly fixed to the body 10 of the mouthpiece, preventing the arched bracket 21 from loosening or shifting during use, and ensuring that the arched bracket 21 always stays in the correct position.

[0060] The first fixing member 211 and the second fixing member 212 are connected by through fixing holes. That is, when it is necessary to disassemble or adjust the arch support 21, only the first fixing member 211 and the second fixing member 212 need to be disassembled, without affecting the overall structure of the mouthpiece. Specifically, the first fixing member 211 and the second fixing member 212 can be bolts. When it is necessary to disassemble the arch support 21, simply loosen the corresponding fixing member.

[0061] Furthermore, in this embodiment, there are multiple first mounting slots 121 and multiple second mounting slots 122, with the same number of first mounting slots 121 and second mounting slots 122, and they are correspondingly arranged. Multiple corresponding first mounting slots 121 and second mounting slots 122 can provide multiple installation positions for the arched bracket 21. Therefore, the installation position of the arched bracket 21 can be adjusted according to requirements to match the isolation component 30 and improve the clamping effect.

[0062] In this embodiment, there are five first mounting slots 121, and the five first mounting slots 121 are arranged sequentially at intervals along the length of the body 10.

[0063] In an optional embodiment, the pressing part 22 includes a spiral rod 221 and a pressure plate 223. The spiral rod 221 passes through the middle region of the arched bracket 21, and the pressure plate 223 is fixed to the spiral rod 221 on the side near the body 10.

[0064] The rotation of the screw rod 221 can drive the pressure plate 223 to move towards or away from the body 10, so that the pressure plate 223 applies different degrees of pressure to the isolation assembly 30. Furthermore, the position and pressure of the pressure plate 223 can be precisely controlled by the screw rod 221, so as to adapt it to isolation assemblies 30 of different thicknesses or materials.

[0065] The pressure plate 223 can evenly distribute the pressure applied by the screw rod 221, avoiding local deformation or damage to the isolation component 30 due to single-point force.

[0066] The operator can loosen or fix the pressure plate 223 simply by rotating the screw rod 221, without the need for additional tools or complicated operations, making the installation or removal of the isolation assembly 30 relatively simple.

[0067] Furthermore, the pressure plate 223 is rotatably connected to the screw rod 221.

[0068] It is understandable that if the pressure plate 223 and the screw rod 221 are fixedly connected, the pressure plate 223 may rotate together when the screw rod 221 is rotated, thus affecting the fixing effect and even causing the isolation component 30 to shift. By rotatably connecting the pressure plate 223 and the screw rod 221, the pressure plate 223 can remain relatively stationary when the screw rod 221 rotates, with only the screw rod 221 rotating. This prevents the pressure plate 223 from shifting when compressed, improving the accuracy of installation and ease of use.

[0069] This application also provides a musical instrument, including the mouthpiece described in any of the above embodiments.
